MTL - Online Game: Island War-Chapter 35 dwarf condition
"Decided... um~! Although we dwarves are not very good-natured, we love life, we like to strike iron, and we like to drink spirits, but... we don't like fighting.
So I hope that we dwarves can go to war without joining the army! "
Heh, if you hadn't admitted that dwarves have bad tempers, I would have thought you were talking about other races, Lei Jiu murmured in his heart.
Dwarves like to strike iron, like to drink, this is true. But don't like fighting?
He said hehe, Edgar, you covered your face with a big beard, so that people couldn't see the specific expression, you dare to say anything shameless! No wonder you were embarrassed and laughed before saying this.
In Lei Jiu's impression, any race with muscles all over its body is not warlike.
They always have excess energy, and their bodies move faster than their heads. It is common for them to fight because of surging qi and blood, impulsiveness, etc.
How did Lei Jiu know?
Because that's what the red-haired one is like!
Dwarves are small muscle balls, and the red-haired species of Huanghuang Island are large muscle balls.
Huanghuang Island is now in the emerging stage, and there is a lot of work that cannot be done, and the red-haired species have a place to sweat. However, when productivity rises in the future, and some of the red-haired species are freed from heavy labor, Lei Jiu will have a headache. How to find a suitable outlet for them to prevent them from disturbing the public order.
In fact, even now, it is not that there are no fights.
Lei Jiu has already thought about it. When the administrative structure is more perfect, he will bring out the police force. Fighting will not be detained or fined, and both parties will be sent to reform through labor.
Well, it's too far away, it's too far away, hurry up and get back to your senses.
The basic attitude of the other party has been determined, and they are willing to accept the inclusion, but the conditions need to be negotiated.
In fact, Lei Jiu knew very well the purpose of Edgar's words.
The number of dwarves is only more than 500, and they cannot be refreshed like the islanders of Huanghuang Island. The natural growth rate is very slow.
And in war, people will die!
Huanghuang Island wants to develop from a small island of several square kilometers into a continent. The blood and rain in it can be imagined. It is light to describe it with ten thousand bones.
In the history of the earth, the rise of every empire is a path of blood forged from mountains and bones. These blood, there are enemies, but also their own.
What Edgar meant, they could contribute, but they were unwilling to leave blood.
Otherwise, with the number of dwarves, as long as you bleed a little bit for Huanghuang Island once or twice, the dwarves might be wiped out!
Well, the difficulties of dwarves are understandable, but, "within 10 years, the dwarves who have reached 80 combat power must be recruited at any time!"
Edgar pondered, those with a combat power of more than 80 are already considered to be quite high-end combat power.
Looking at the people around the island owner, judging from the feeling, he must be stronger than Edgar, and there is only the lamp god.
Obviously, the other party is in urgent need of high-end combat power, and they have thoughtfully limited the time for 10 years. If they do not agree to this, it seems a little unreasonable.
"Yes, we dwarves, including me, have a total of three people with a combat strength of over 80. Within ten years, we will be ready to be dispatched by the island master."
Lei Jiu had a smile on his face, he really liked the high-end combat power of the dwarves, mainly because he felt that it was not very safe to go out to explore, and when there was no way to travel with a large army, the higher the combat power, the better.
The reason for adding the 10-year period is because these dwarves are indeed not in his armament plan. If it is not for insurance, he is even willing to limit the period to 5 years.
Still the same problem, the population of the dwarves is too small to form an independent army.
If you insist on arranging them into the human army, race, height, customs, ideology, etc. will inevitably lead to many problems and conflicts.
As long as they can help Lei Jiu safely through the first few years, during this period of high-end combat power barren in the exploration period, they can retire successfully and do whatever they want.
In the big picture, even if the two sides reached a consensus, it was direct and quick. Next, there are things that don't matter in the big picture.
"Haha, that, from now on, I'll start calling you the island owner. Well, the island owner, do you think you can support us with a batch of food? You just realized that our food...
In addition, it would be even better if there was wine, I haven't tasted wine for more than 10 years." Edgar rubbed his hands and seemed a little embarrassed, but he was still yearning for food and wine. Open this mouth.
Sure enough, the dwarves must have agreed so happily, and the pressure on food was also one of the important reasons. However, Lei Jiu was also a little embarrassed. He finally opened his mouth a few times, but it seemed that he couldn't come up with anything decent at all.
"That..., in fact, we came to Huanghuang Island to settle down, and it has not been a month. The food has just been planted, and now the only food that can be eaten is sea fish."
The question of wine, Lei Jiu didn't mention it at all. It was a joke, there was no food, and there were no fruit trees on Huanghuang Island, so what kind of wine could he use.
"Fish? Fish is fine! We're not picky eaters."
Um?
Are the requirements so low?
Could it be that the dwarves can't even handle the year-old cakes that test their teeth and digestive ability?
"You don't go out fishing?"
"There are a lot of sea monsters in the sea, it's too dangerous to go out fishing!"
? ? ?
Is there such a thing?
The fishing team of Huanghuang Island is fishing at sea every day. Except for the clawed turtle last time, they have never encountered other situations. How to listen to the other party's tone? As soon as they go out to sea, they will encounter sea monsters. of?
Lei Jiu asked in detail and got a positive answer from Edgar. In their impression, it is true that as soon as they go out to sea, something will happen. And they don't know how to build boats. Every time they go out on a raft, they go back and forth.
It seems that the safety of the fishermen should be played by the novice protection. Just like 10 years before the start of the game, the player island will directly refresh the population, so that the player island owners can succeed in this sea.
The ocean is so big and there are so many islands, not to mention the sea monsters that seem to be everywhere, at least Lei Jiu has never seen a large bird of prey near Huanghuang Island.
You must know that this place is not the kind on earth. Animals have been cherished to the time when they need to be protected. Since beasts of beasts can be found on the island outside, it makes no sense that bird-like beasts do not exist.
Just like the player island that was destroyed by the Thunderbird, he was clearly close at hand, but it was obvious that the other party had never seen any trace of the Thunderbird before, otherwise how would he dare to go and die?
Obviously, the system does not allow these raptors and flying beasts to cross the border, and so should the sea monsters.
As for the clawed turtle like before, it is likely that the system leaked in deliberately as an independent event? It is designed to remind players that this is not a paradise, and the vast sea is not safe.
I just don't know if the scope outside the first island chain is still within the "system protection area"?
Lei Jiu and his party flew over, so he really didn't know whether they would be attacked by sea monsters when they moved on the sea surface in this area.
However, according to Lei Jiu's guess, this "system protection area" is likely to be calculated according to the sphere of influence of the player's island.
That is to say, no sea monsters are allowed to appear within 100 kilometers (square of the island level * 100) kilometers away from the player's island. Birds of prey and flying monsters that survive within this range must stay in their own nests honestly and become trigger monsters.
Well, even if you say so, but even if you tell the dwarves about it, the other party probably won't want to go out to sea to test it. Especially when they only need to wait another 10 days, once the islands are integrated, they can eat a big pot of rice with peace of mind.
